Chapter 1 pg 1 - Drinking Love


Listen>>>


My friend Brandy has the medicine
Pain reliever that treats you right
They call my whiskey and wine by different names
But believe me, it's all the same tonight

Don't let my hopes go fading
Just to speak to her... man that is tough
And I drink her in with love
By closing time... is that enough?

Brandy told me about her heart break
She has a special place in my heart
A silver chain adorns her pretty blouse
Her story captured me from the start

It was a sailor who swept her off her feet
Told her story of stormy seas
It was plain to see he was larger than life
He made her go weak in the knees

Brandy drank him in with love
As the summer did pale
She could see her hopes were fading
As she watched his last sail

She's a vision so lovely and lonely
Could she be my mission, my only?

So once upon a broken-hearted time
Fair maiden braves the time a lone
She doesn't fear the ghosts of brutally slain hopes
But her loneliness chills her to the bone

Brandy drank him in with love
As the summer did pale
She could see her hopes were fading
As she watched his last sail

Now I can't tell you what I should do
Don't want to go opening up old wounds
But my love for her grows stronger by the hour
Should a grown man swoon?

Brandy drank him in with love
As the summer did pale
Now I can see my hopes are fading
As she watches his last sail

wow! this is great! really enjoyable to listen and read at the same time. so many qualities well handled aesthetically, as well as technically. great story/poetry/lyrics. the music is very enjoyable and fun to listen to -- a lot of emotion and warmth to the delivery. since there is so much depth to the contents, it's enjoyable to re-listen many times. having hearing problems, it's a joy to have the novel to read while listening.
